The Role
It was amazing. I got involved in so many project across the business and gained a lot of new skills. It's a great company to work for.
There are some people, like in any company, that are a fan of interns but generally we were treated as full time employees. I feel as though I did actually have an impact on the business
I had fortnightly one to ones with my manager as well as other mentors around the business and I was part of the leadership team mentoring scheme. Mentoring opportunities are endless.
Always busy!
As much as I wanted (quite a bit)
So many new skills! Much better time management and presentation skills.
The Company
It's a really fun place to work.
Very structured scheme
There could be more training but it's down to you to make it happen
